..Although the absence of a regulated MPTP in A. franciscana mitochondria could contribute to the extreme hypoxia tolerance in this species, we speculate that absence of the regulated MPTP may be a general feature of invertebrates...

..94) with the fold-increase in the 'effective adenylate ratio'. Thus for each cell line, the greater the depression of metabolism and proliferation due to preconditioning with AICAR, the greater was the survivorship post-freezing...

..Our biochemical characterization of caspase-like activity in A. franciscana extracts reveals that multiple mechanisms are in place to reduce the probability of apoptosis under conditions of energy limitation in this embryo...
